Patent number: 10497155Abstract: A method for creating a graphical representation of data is performed at an electronic device having one or more processors and memory. The device receives a finite set of data points and calculates a respective conical distribution for each respective data point centered on the respective data point and based on a respective data value. Each conical distribution comprises a set of locations and a unique distribution value corresponding to each location. The device determines that a first data value of a first data point is less than a distribution value for a second data point. The distribution value has a location that corresponds to the first data point. Based on that determination, the device calculates an inverse conical distribution in a region around the first data point. The device combines the conical distributions and inverse conical distributions to display a data visualization that includes each of the data points.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2017Date of Patent: December 3, 2019Assignee: New BIS Safe Luxco S.à r.lInventors: Andrew John Cardno, Peter Stewart Ingham, Bart Andrew Lewin, Ashok Kumar Singh
